Are Computers Wrecking Schools?
http://www.msnbc.com/news/980334.asp
A new and controversial book argues that computers have done far more
harm than good to education
NEWSWEEK WEB EXCLUSIVE
Oct. 14 — Todd Oppenheimer, author of "The Flickering Mind," was
among the first journalists to leave print to explore computers,
CD-ROMs and online delivery, here at Newsweek. But what he saw of the
cyberworld clearly didn't sit well. After a few years he returned to
the realm of print to produce his first book—a carefully researched
and scathing attack on computers in education stretching back to the
early Eighties. His subtitle says it all: The false promise of
technology in the classroom and how learning can be saved.
